BMW Recalls 1 Million Vehicles For Fire Issues

BMW said it is recalling about 1 million vehicles in North America for two separate issues involving fire risks. The automaker said it may expand the recalls to other countries.

One recall covers 670,000 2006-2011 U.S. 3-series vehicles to address a wiring issue for heating and air conditioning system may overheat and could increase the risk of a fire.

This is rather serious, a lot of cars over quite a few years. It will take awhile to address. Did they provide any recommendations in the meantime?

In the go-go 1980's/1990's in NYC people joked and said that BMW was an acronym for "Break My Window" (think purse and car stereo thefts).

Maybe its time for a new BMW acronym?

How about "Burn My Whip" ??

Maybe we should round up these BMWs and ship them to ISIS. They could yell Paula Abdul Acura or whatever it is they yell when they die in the name of their lesser god.

Of course, we could start making old TVRs and sending them to ISIS too given the TVRs flammable antics.

Oh wait! ZENVO!
